THIS PRODUCT REQUIRES YOU TO CONSULT WITH FLOW ENGINEERING PRIOR TO ORDERING
Please be prepared to complete the "Vortex/Pitot Tube Order Questionnaire" (Download in the Related Links Below) so you can
fax or email it to Flow Engineering.

Please contact Omega FLOW Engineering by phone, fax, or email flow@omega.com to size the vortex flow meter for your application.
All the vortex meters are custom built to order. A display is highly recommended for any
fine tuning adjustments required.

Based on the field proven sensor technology of the FV-500C Series vortex flowmeters, FV-500C
features a new amplifier with proprietary spectral signal processing (SSP) technology to
analyze the vortex waveform into its spectral components to filter noise
from signal for the most stable measurement possible.

The FV-500C Series will provide excellent vibration immunity for stable, accurate measurements
at low flows without any need for start-up tuning. The user benefits
through greater reliability, reduced maintenance and a lower total cost of ownership.

The programmable display allows access to the full power of OMEGA’s new intelligent amplifier.
The display is required if you would like to access the pulse output programming.
The display is highly recommend if an adjustment or tweaking is required for the flow measurement
application.
The display also permits the user to display flow rate and/or total in engineering units for liquids and gases.
Rate and total are displayed simultaneously. If the density or enthalpy of the fluid is constant
(i.e. the temperature and pressure do not change), the density value can be entered into the meter to
display in kilograms, pounds or metric tons; the enthalpy value can be entered to display in BTUs,
kilojoules, etc. Analog output span adjustment and low cutoff are also settable from the display, there is
no need to adjust pots. The analog and pulse outputs can also be forced to output from 0 to 100% FS
or 0 to 6000 Hz without any flow through the meter as a test of the amplifier. For steam flow
measurement, the FV-500C can be used with the OMEGA™ FC-20 mass flow computer. The standard
FV-500C is wafer-style to slip between 150# ANSI flanges, and comes supplied with extra long
bolts for installation. Units with the suffix “-F” have 150# ANSI flanges, 300 lb flange mount is available.

Note: Units with “ -F” suffix have 150 class flange connections, 300 lb flange mount is available if needed.
For units with a display, add “-D” to the part number and $403 to the price.
For units with remote electronics, add “-R” to the part number, subtract $455 from the price, and order the mounting kit and cable below.
For units designed for high temperature use, add “-HT” to the model number and consult engineering for prices.
